Youth Camp and Exchange 2024
Team UK: Local Youths embark on a trip of a lifetime with Lions International
Ringwood & Fordingbridge Lions Club have helped 8 extraordinary young people from our community secure a place at a Lions International Youth Camp abroad this summer. Six are pictured above collecting specially printed Lions tee shirts to wear on their travels.
Printed on the back of each shirt is their name and where they are travelling to:-
Every trip is unique, and each young person will spend up to 2 weeks living with a host family (or in the case of Katie 3 in rural Japan) and then a further week to 10 days at an international youth camp comprising young people from around the world. Every year over 100 International Youth Camps will be arranged by Lions International spanning 40 different countries. Every Lions Camp is different and exciting and offers everyone participating a life-changing experience; to explore the culture and sights of that country; to be more independent; and to make new friends around the world. Commonly, those taking part will only need to raise enough funds for their flights and spending money with Lions Clubs meeting other expenses. If you are aged between 16 and 22 and wish to apply for an international Lions youth camp abroad in the summer of 2025, please contact Ringwood & Fordingbridge Lions Club at www.randflions.org.uk or call us on 0345 833 5819
Ringwood & Fordingbridge Lions Club is one of 46,000 clubs operating worldwide. Anyone can join as a volunteer, and all are welcome. To find out more about what we do contact us at membership@randflions.org.uk
